You should also know that SLS is banned in the EU, so this post made no sense to me until I went to Google for answers…
I swear, sometimes it’s hard to fathom the little ways you got it rough over there.
A Google listicle about “7 banned substances in the EU” or some shit, straight up lied to me.
SLS (Sodium laurilsulfate) is not banned, not even particularly regulated, in medicinal products, in the EU.
“The vast majority of SLS use is in oral products (tablets and capsules) where it rarely displays any adverse reactions.”
It only is “not permitted”, as a food additive in the EU, and there is a 2017 study which argues for its regulation in skin products, because of irritation.
I was careless on the internet, and the world is more complicated than it seemed at first glance. Story as old as time.
